A costly initiative to consumers

You had better read I-1631 before voting.

It is a never-ending tax, and they can raise it anytime they want.

Not only do they say it will raise fuel taxes 14 cents per gallon, everything you purchase at the store will have a fuel surcharge, which is usually double the surcharge. Your heating and electric bill will go up.

From what I understand, an oversight group by the governor and Democrats will spend billions of dollars wherever they want with no accountability to the public. This money does have to be used to reduce greenhouse gas.

Like others before it, this tax won’t go away if enacted.
